Brazil Captain Murilo Endres: “We started really bad the match. We almost gave an entire set for them. We did not play well. We changed almost the entire team but we were not able to find our rhythm. We made a lot of mistakes during the important moments of the game."

Brazil coach Bernardo Rezende: “Nobody likes to lose. The difference of this match for the last game was when the errors happened. We did a lot of mistakes at important moments of the game. We have to play with more intelligence. We will work more to achieve our main goal now that is the classification for the final round.”

USA captain William “Reid” Priddy: “I think it was a great match. Brazil made very difficult our win this morning. Our coach told us that we needed to play as a team and it was the difference of this game. We played together as a team in the good and bad moments."

USA coach Alan Knipe: “I am very pleased with the way my team played today. I think we did not make so many errors during the important moments. Yesterday I said for my team that we could not give so many errors for them and it did not happen today. Brazil has an amazing environment for volleyball. We have some young guys in the team such as Anderson and I think that they learned a lot with these matches."
